    Project Kiwi (Groot) and Exo (Wampa & Hulk) in NYT

    An interesting article in the NYT that focuses on Disneys efforts to develop animatronics to walk around the parks. The main focus is on Project Kiwi and the walking Groot, but toward the end there is this photo showing an prototype Wampa and Hulk: This was news to me, and really think it...

    FastPass+ Most Certainly Not Coming Back As It Was

    Also blame income. Taking a 7 day vacation no matter the place is quite spendy. When people on this board discuss 14+ day trips, I'm always curious both how they get the vacation time, but also the money to finance it. Unless it's the only vacation for the year, but that never sounds like the case.

    News Disney's Magical Express to end after 2021

    A refund? Price adjustment? This isn't inventing the wheel. The same thing that happens when any company misdelivers on a promised product or service.

    News Disney's Magical Express to end after 2021

    Absolutely, we arrived mid day on a Monday. None of the lines were very busy but some of the buses going to other resorts were more filled than ours.

    News Disney's Magical Express to end after 2021

    Considering that only hotels on WDW property are allowed options as drop off/pick up locations when going through the reservation system I think you're wrong. Please lose the hyperbole. Unless of course you are talking about the WDW value resorts as the sketchiest locations in Orlando.

    News Disney's Magical Express to end after 2021

    I think peoples experience vary widely. When my family last went in Oct 2019 there were maybe 5 other people on our bus on the way to WDW, and only double that when we left.

    News Disney's Magical Express to end after 2021

    This should not be an issue according to their description of the service. While there is a little mystery to the service, I think people are going overboard being worried that their bus will make 90 stops before getting to their hotel.

    FastPass+ Most Certainly Not Coming Back As It Was

    I'm just correcting you. You were saying the price was for Express at 2 parks instead of just 1, which drastically changes how reasonable the price is in comparison to the FP discussion here.

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    It's not overthinking, it's people intentionally seeking out ever more ridiculous and miniscule avenues prove it's a failed idea that Disney has executed terribly before anyone has even set foot in it.

    Rumor Hollywood insiders say there's growing tension at Disney as CEO Bob Chapek chafes at Bob Iger's 'long goodbye'

    Since MGM was sold in 86, and the licensing deal was in 85 it was probably just one.

    Rumor Hollywood insiders say there's growing tension at Disney as CEO Bob Chapek chafes at Bob Iger's 'long goodbye'

    This is incorrect. Ted Turner bought MGM in the 80's from Kirk Kerkorian, but after only owning MGM for a few months Turner basically reversed the MGM sale back to Kerkorian, but retained ownership of all film properties in a newly formed subsidiary called Turner Entertainment Company. Turner...

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    There should be a character named Biggs Omas that walks around on the hour yelling, "Let's get ready for some Star Wars!"

    Play with your dates, I saw standard opening at the Poly during the 23rd to the 29th as well as 9th to the 15th.

    Halloween or Christmas at WDW?

    Is it really that much worse? I've heard that the week following Thanksgiving is a bit of a lull before Christmas travel really ramps up. Also, isn't it true that there really is much of a dead time anymore, its just always busy?

    News Refurbishment coming soon to Disney's Polynesian Village Resort - Moana details to be included

    I thought it was pretty simple: If something is added or changed that is geared more toward children or parents w/children then a large contingent set out to complain. This has nothing to do with what the past attitude or mandate of the company has been or attraction mix. There is simply a...

    How is remodeling Poly to incorporate Moana dumbed down and lazy? The trend toward wine and dine is absolutely geared toward adults btw.

    Never said that. Just that if anything is done with children in mind it's bad. Sorry that upsets you.
